Linux/MIPS O2 Patches

Minimal patch-set for latest IP32 (SGI O2) Linux kernel

Ilya A. Volynets-Evenbakh

This page contains latest minimal patch sets from my tree. These are generated against latest (as of post date) version of linux-mips.org CVS.

• These patches do not contain any new functionality. i.e. no framebuffer support, no VICE, no keyboard/mouse, etc.
• These patches are guaranteed to compile with my latest toolchain (which is not always available on Internet, but I will make tarball available at request). Otherwise you may want to play a bit with arch/mips/Makefile. Usually it's not too difficult to make it work.
• These patches are not guaranteed to generate bootable kernel.
• It seems there are problems with loading vmlinux.64 using some older versions of PROM. Either get newer PROM (i.e. from IRIX install CD) or build 32bit kernel

If you have any questions about these patches, feel free to (in order of preference):

1. Email mailing list (linux@linux-mips.org)
2. Ask on irc://irc.freenode.net/#mipslinux
3. Email me.

Note: before doing any of above, you have to read this guide.

For fuller (but far less up-to-date) set of patches see Vivien's page.
